I need some advice, I currently have C.Jones as my 3B, should I consider getting rid of him for P.Polanco or D.Freese? I am worried about his playing time, but I think that batting third in ATL has value…Freese also should have plenty of RBI opportunities batting in front of Pujols, Berkman, Rasmus, Holliday….What should I do?

Tks!

Trade advise needed. I play in a 10 team 5×5 points H2H baseball league.

My closer Ryan Franklin just blew up on me. The closers I have left are H. Bell and B. Lyons and Sean Marshell as my holds guy. As you can except the other owners are coming out with trade offers. The Offer : JJ PUTZ and Alex Gonzolez SS for Zack Britton and Steven Drew. I have Britton sitting in my minors slot right now.

My question is am I giving up to much. Again I don’t want to panic and over react.
Boggs the next St. Louis go to guy is already taken and so is Santos from CWS.

So… would you make this trade ? I am hesitant.

Thanks,
Ritch

Hello:

I play in an NL-only, 5×5 league. We use an auction for the first 15 players, then a serpentine draft to fill out the rosters. We each have $300 to spend for the auction, minus any money we spent on keepers.

The league allows up to four keepers per team.

If you were me, which four (or fewer) players would you keep from this list? (Note: The amount shown after each player is the amount it will cost me to keep him.)

Thanks for your help,

• Aubrey Huff $2
• Will Venable $11
• Shane Victorino $36
• Andrew McCutcheon $33
• Bronson Arroyo $11
• Heath Bell $29
• Tim Hudson $25
• Huston Street $ 9

P.S. As a guide, in our league, Albert Pujols always goes for the most money, generally about $60, and $29 (for Heath Bell, for instance) is about as much as anyone pays for a closer.

Draft time is just around the corner and I decided this year to make a big step up in competition league wise. The league is a 8X8 head to head with a bunch of fantasy baseball freaks.
Scoring looks like this

Batters Stat Categories: Runs (R), Home Runs (HR), Runs Batted In (RBI), Stolen Bases (SB), Walks (BB), Strikeouts (K), Total Bases (TB), Batting Average (AVG)
Pitchers Stat Categories: Wins (W), Saves (SV), Strikeouts (K), Holds (HLD), Total Bases Allowed (TB), Earned Run Average (ERA), (Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched (WHIP), Quality Starts (QS)

I picked up the 11th pick in the draft and I’m going to be left with a tough decision in my opinion. I know from talking to everyone in the league where I’ll be sitting when the 11th pick comes. The first RD so far from everything i gather will be

* 1. Albert Pujols
* 2. Hanley Ramírez
* 3. Álex Rodríguez
* 4. Chase Utley
* 5. Ryan Braun
* 6. Matt Kemp
* 7. Prince Fielder or Evan Longoria
* 8. Tim Lincecum
* 9. Joe Mauer
* 10. Roy Halladay

Leaving me with ( either Fielder or Longoria, Cabrera, Howard, and Texeira ) to pick from. If Longoria falls it’s an easy first two picks I take Longoria and see which of the 3 stud 1st baseman falls to my 2nd RD 14th pick (probably Howard and Cabrera). If Longoria’s not there at 11 (which I’m guessing will be the case) I’m stuck with 4 Stud 1st basemen at the 11th (Fielder, Tex, Howard, Cabrera) and at least 2 more at the 14th pick (probably Howard and Cabrera).

My thought is to take the best 2 players available to me in the first 2 rds regardless of position if Longoria doesn’t fall to me. That would probably give me Howard and Fielder which would give me a ton of offense in the first 2 rds. Should i reach for somebody i think is a mid 2rd pick like Kinsler, Crawford, Holliday, Ellsbury or take the best 2 players available.

Thanks
